Brief Answer:
Skim lightening ,a slow process
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I understand your concern regarding your skin problem and I hope I am able to help you in the same.
Your problem is that of pigmentation of the underarms .
I would like to tell you that the pigmentation will take some time to improve .
You can apply another agent with kojic acid to the affected area in the morning and apply melas cream at night .
Since skin tends to renew at its own pace ,you might have to wait for atleast three months to see a noticable difference.
Also you need to know that skin lightening can be achieved only to a certain level on every person .
You can take oral vitamin c supplements along to hasten the process .

Hi again
You can use melas only for six to seven weeks and then stop using it .This cream cannot be used continuously for a long time .
You can however continue to use kojic acid cream regularly for longer time twice daily without any harm.
Vitamin c supplements are easily available and they help in improving skin tone .
